Alexander, I probably will give it a 95. This is my first experience ever having a surgery and being in hospital for so long, so it is hard for me to rate it. But overall the experience was great, everyone was caring and nice, especially those nurses and therapists taking... Read more.

Day 4 after surgery, things are
finally moving on the right direction.for the few days after surgery, I wasn't able to go number 2. It was no fun and
more difficult than I anticipated. I'm scheduled to be discharged Tomorrow. Here is a picture of my minimum invasive incision. I... Read more.

Hang in there, Anna - this recovery takes time, but it gets better each week.

Sounds like you are doing well. The hospital staff will likely cheer when you do the No 2. It's very important for your release. Hang tough and listen to your body.

You are right, Rose, the sweet nurses cheered on me

Arrived at NYC safely yesterday. Very surprised that the fees and taxes for Uber added up to over 70 bucks, about two times the cost of the 30 something actually goes to the driver! Kind of culture shock to us southerners😂

Nice view!

Sometimes it's cheaper to Uber than take a taxi, but wow!

I know what you mean, Anna. It seems like many of the new, popular services are adding lots of fees. Let us know how you are settling in!

Better than being shot or mugged.
